Natural Gas Pathways
The purpose of is to contribute to an international projects on natural gas for road transport lead by The United States of America. The project maps several alternative pathways from raw natural gas to road going engine fuels. This incorporates technologies such as liquefied natural gas, methanol, synthetic diesel and emerging engine technologies.
In this project a value proposition study will be conducted to investigate different pathways of natural gas used in on-road vehicles to assess the advantages and disadvantages of the various options. Aspects include but are not limited to cost, lifecycle emissions, energy consumption, and social benefits. The goal is to identify a “winning” way to utilize natural gas in transportation with the potential to emerge into the mainstream market, instead of maintaining a niche market in many countries.
